Letter: Don’t overlook the virus

It seems that the people of this country are forgetting the most important thing now happening in our world. The plague called COVID-19.

As people run around hating each other, playing with guns and threatening anyone who does not agree with them, what are they doing for the threat of COVID-?  If all these people took their money, time, energy and support towards stopping COVID-19, we might win the battle against this terrible plague.  Yet, some people can not even be convinced that a mask could save their life.

I hope when you are all done playing “Rambo” for a totally evil man, there are people, children, and babies left to provide future generations of people for our planet. COVID-19 is real and it is coming for all of us. We hope to God you know how to pray.

Larry and Linda McCombe, Salt Lake City
